My prayers and thoughts are with you Irene, your children and family --- Rupert was such a wonderful and caring person -- I am sure that he is watching over us still! I regret that I just found out about his passing today and was unable to attend his funeral. I treasure the time working with Rupert at IBM in the 80s. He was the best coach ever.
